> Cases where Google doesn't follow standards. Like what? If there’s a standard, Chrome follows it. If there’s no standard, they propose one. They used to have a lot of custom features with prefixes, but that rarely happens anymore.

IE7 came out with tabs in late 2006 while Firefox had it at least since 2002. Imagine having no tabs in a browser. IE6’ advantage was the ActiveX features, which were not documented nor a standard, unlike Chrome’s features.

Here you go: Safari is a great browser for users. The only thing that kept me away all of these years is the lack of extensions and because I’m used to Chrome’s developer tools. Firefox is the worst browser in literally every way except for

I don’t think people complained that IE6 was the only option. People complained because it was buggy and didn’t follow standards so that, compounded with monopoly, meant that apps only worked in IE6. Sounds like the current Firefox situatio

I don’t know what I’m talking about, but isn’t the Secure Enclave already a solution to this? Fido cards just sound like an external solution that all iPhones and new MacBooks already have integrated (T2)

Would you like your car to follow some laws or anything goes? What if it’s nearly the only car you can buy in the US? We’re talking about access to the internet, something that people are increasingly acknowledging as a primary need. Regula

They take advantage of it by planning to return it regardless of reason. That’s abuse. The system works if the customer has the honest intention of buying the car.

I don’t think $1000 matches the value loss of a car that is no longer zero-miles, let alone anything less than that.

Quick suggestion: If you're doing demo videos, start from a clean desktop, better yet, a fresh new user. It's weird to see your favorites.

Post online. Twitter, Facebook, your favorite messenger won't allow changing the time. When renting a car from a sketchy place, I take photos and send them either to myself or to the owner. In cases of liability, a public medium would

Preach. One can complain that the tools could be better , but not that they exist. They exist because they solve a problem that other platforms don't have: real-time delivery over the web and compatibility with a variety of runtimes.

Yes good luck shipping that main.rs to a web browser. The problem that Webpack solves is performance optimization in addition to what Rust offers: - writing in a higher-level language: "write modern code and ship to IE 5" is the s

Version 5 and this tool still has absolutely awful UX. I have no problem configuring Webpack, but it's ridiculous that: - it needs two plugins to generate CSS files [1], when the homepage lists it as one of the supported outputs in f

Regardless of the current status of the specific app, yeah, I think the issue is the inability to download "the latest version supported by your device" directly from the Play Store.

Why not just use an older version if you have an older device? Supporting years of ever-changing APIs is evidently painful. As a macOS user I’m kinda used to seeing “latest version for macOS 123 is a.b.c”

The moment a platform becomes for “general purpose computing” they will be forced to open up. Especially Windows won’t be allowed to be a closed platform given its dominance. Even then, there will always be Linux.

In publications perhaps. I remember regularly seeing 3€50 in Greece I think and 3,50 € in Italy. Writing it differently and would look off or pretentious on a menu.

I’ve seen this happen everywhere, every country has their own version of English, where they use English words but not how they should be used. Notable examples for me are “smart working” in Italy to refer to “work from home” and “maintain
